Where do I enter balance payment in turbotax desktop

I made a few payments to IRS online as Balance Payment for 2022. How can I enter in Turbotax desktop version?

 

Seems to be Schedule 3, line 13z, but I cannot update the form myself.

Please do not enter anything directly into the FORMs Mode.  All entry should be in Step by Step.

 

To enter Estimated payments that you made for 2022:

  1. Start at Federal Taxes
  2. Deductions & Credits
  3. Scroll down to Estimates and Other taxes paid.
  4. Select Federal Estimated Taxes for 2022
  5. Follow the interview and post the estimated taxes paid.

If this does not completely answer your question, please contact us again and provide some additional details.

It is a balance payment not an estimated payment. As in https://fed.acipayonline.com/, it's the 1040 current tax return, not 1040 - ES. How should I enter it into turbotax desktop version?

You don't enter the current tax due payment.  Your return will always show the tax due or refund when you filed it.  The payment will match up at the IRS.

@Anonymous Please define what you mean by "Balance Payment".

 

Are you referring to payments made for prior year federal taxes owed?  Or are you referring to the federal taxes owed on a current year 2022 federal tax return?
